LIVER
TROUBLES
B “I find Thedford’s Blaek-Prnnght
W a rood medicine for liver disease.
~ It cured my -on after he had spent
SIOO with doctors. It is all the med
icine I take.”—MßS. CAROLINE
MARTIN, Parkersburg, W. Ya.
If vonr liver does not act reg
i ularly go to your druggist and
secure a package of Thedford’s
Black-Draught and take a dose
tonight. This great family
medicine frees the constipated
1 bowels, stirs up the torpid lit er
and causes a healthy secretion
of bile.
Thedford s Black - Draught
will cleanse the bowels of im
purities and strengthen the kid
neys. A torpid liver invites
colds, biliousness, chills and
fever and all manner of sick
ness and contagion. Weak kid
neys result in Bright's disease
which claims as many victim#
as consumption. A 2. r »-ccnt
package of Thedford’s Black-
Draught should always be kept
in the house.
“I used Thedford's Black-
Draught for liver and k'dnev com
plaints and found nothing to exc6l
it.”—WILLIAM COFFMAN, Mar
blehead, 111.
THEDFORD’S
BLACK
DRAUGHT
German Balry’s Svratlis.
Of all housewives in Europe probably
th» German is the hardest worked, and
of nil European mothers the German
practices most completely the art of
swathing and padding her baby and of
putting it on the shelf. The German
baby is swaddled in a long, narrow
pillow, which is made to meet com
pletely round him, being tucked up
over his feet and turned under his sol
emn chin. Three bands of gay blue
ribbons are then passed round the
whole bundle and tiel in large, florid
bows about where his chest, his waist
and his ankles may he supposed to be.
In this guise he can be deposited as
an ornament either on the sumptuous
best bed or on the kitchen dresser or
on the drawing room table. How fonil
the Germans are of this presentment of
baby may be guessed from the fact
that it figures largely hi their picture
books, among their dolls and oven in
the bakers’ shops at Easter time, made
of dough and covered with sugar, to be
devoured by greedily live babies.—
Strand Magazine.
The* Uncomfortable Collar.
"I don’t know what is the matter
with these collars,” said Smartboy to
the salesman. “They seemed all right
when 1 bought them yesterday. But I
had to use a button hook to connect
them with my collar button this morn
ing. They fit as though they were in
tended for my little brother.”
“There are two ways to put on a aol
lar,” replied Ihe salesman, “and you
seem to have chosen the wrong way.
I noticed it when you were here ye tar
day, but it was not up to me to tell
you. I’ve been jumped on for volun
teering that information more than
once. Most men think it does not make
any difference whether you button the
right side or the left of a collar first.
It makes all the difference in the
world in the comfort and set of the
eollor. no matter what shape it Is.
Undo that collar you are wearing, lint
ton the right side first, and you'll be
glad you’re alive.”—New York Press.
Prniili Knjrlixh Servants.
The English servants, whether they
prove better when engaged, are certain
ly franker than American servants in
declaring their weaknesses in adver
tising for employment. The columns
of a London paper disclose their amia
ble candidness. In the first advertise
ment the applicant confesses to “drink
a temptation, but not an inebriate;” the
next pleads as her recommendation
that she is “faithful, but plain of
speech;” a third requires a place where
“manual work is light,” but does not
say of what intellectual work she is
capable, while a fourth is described as
a “dishonest girl of seventeen.” Should
the mistress be too hypercritical to en
gage any of the above attractive serv
ants she has still another opportunity—
perhaps “she will be willing to train
for domestic service a rough coster
girl desirous of redeeming character.”
I.ljfliUnß London In 1713.
The question of the lighting of Lon
don was settled in simple fashion in
1715. The common council “repealed,
annulled and made void all the former
acts concerning the lighting of Lon
don’' as a preliminary measure and
then proceeded to enact that “all house
keepers whose house, door or gateway
fronts or lies next to any street, lane
or public passage or place of the said
city shall in every dark night—that is.
every night between the second night
after each full moon and the seventh
night after each full moon—set or hang
out one or more lights with sufiicient
cotton wicks that shall continue to burn
from 0 o’clock at night till 11., o'clock
of the same night on penalty of a
shilling.”
Good Horse, Good Rider.
Judging from the following story
which Arthur J. Smythe tells in his
biography of William Terriss, it is evi
dent that the practice of betting on
horse races was among the great dis
likes of the popular actor.
When any one asked him what horse
he was going to back ho would say:
“Fm going to back a little filly I’ve
often backed before. I've never won
anything on it; yet. strange to say, I’ve
never lost a penny.”
“Oh. whatever horse is that?” might
have been the inquiry.
“A little filly eailed Common Sense,
ridden by Tommy Let It Alone,” was
the invariable answer.—London Tele
graph.
Blanket Policy.
Pausing uncertainly before a desk In
the big insurance office, the Hibernian
visitor said to the clerk, “Oi want to
tek out a pawliey.”
“Life, fire or marine?” drawled the
dapper clerk, with infinite sarcasm.
“All three. Oi’m thinkin’,” retorted
the applicant. “Oi'm goin’ fer a stoked
in th’ navy.”—Puck.
Little Brains.
Biggs—To think that a man should
put an enemy in his mouth to steal
away his brains! Griggs—Yes. and
think what a hunt it must be for the
enemy sometimes!

A rower In Flnr.nre,
James 11. Hyde, who has boon the
central figure in the movement to mu
tualize the Equitable Life Assurance
society, is vice president of the soci
ety and controls a majority of its cap
ital stock. The latter he inherited from
his father, Henry B. Hyde, who found
ed the institution in ISSO.
There are but two children in the
Hyde family. The elder is now Mrs.
Sidney D. Ripley, whose late husband
was treasurer of the Equitable society.
James LI. Hyde was born June 0, 1870,
and was graduated from Harvard in
1898. The following year his father
died, and he became the head of one
of the greatest financial institutions in
JAMES HAZEN HYDE.
America. Thus at the age o l twenty
three he entered into a position of re
markable financial power.
It was the wish of the elder Hyde
that his son should succeed him as
president, but some time before his
death, realizing that he must 'pass
away before liis son should reach the
years of necessary business knowledge
and experience, another arrangement
was made. This was that James W.
Alexander should become president
and young Hyde first vice president
until in the course of events he might
be fitted to assume the presidency.
Mr. Hyde is a director in about forty
corporations, among others the West
ern Union Telegraph company. He
has a home in New York, a hotel in
Taris and a fine country place on Long
Island.
